Memories of Crete

By G.R.Eldridge


On A mountainous little island,
Nestled in the Aegean Sea,
By the dromes of Retimo,
At Heraklion and Meleme,
Are the graves of our fallen comrades,
In dozens there they lie,
Their death was the kind that only Gallant Soldiers die.

On that mountainous little island,
With its peaks all capped with snow,
With its groves of olive trees,
And grape vines row on row,
From the ocean wreathed with white caps,
To the mountains wreathed the same,
Are the fields where they fought so bravely,
They, who carried the Anzac's name.

And we who were there, remember
Those days of hell on Crete.
And we hope that when our time comes,
Those pals again we'll meet
As we trudge along the road
Of life that is left to be
Our thoughts will often turn to them
Who sleep, 'neath the olive tree.
